The AMD parts for this comparison were an A8-3870K Llano APU and then an AMD FX-8150 Bulldozer. The Intel and AMD CPUs that were benchmarked under Linux were limited to the interesting APU/CPUs that were on hand at Phoronix. For those that missed the original Phoronix article on the new desktop Trinity APUs, see AMD A10-5800K "Trinity" APU On Linux for details on this 2012 APU and its second-generation Bulldozer processor cores named Piledriver.
